Gary Neville has raved about Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez on his podcast after watching him in action against Fulham at Craven Cottage in the Premier League this past weekend.

The former Manchester United star believes that Liverpool star Nunez was a menace and a handful for the Fulham defenders.

Liverpool played out a 2-2 draw with Fulham in London in their first Premier League game of the season.

Nunez, who joined Jurgen Klopp’s side in the summer transfer window, came on as a substitute and made a big impact.

The 23-year-old scored one goal and provided the assist for another.

Gary Neville on Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez

Neville said about Nunez on his podcast: “Nunez is a handful, he is a menace, when he came on, he was a menace and a handful, and he was very good.”

Big player

In our view, Darwin Nunez is already showing his importance to Liverpool and indicating that he will become a huge player for manager Jurgen Klopp.

The 23-year-old came on as a substitute against Manchester City in the FA Community Shield and was involved in two goals for the Merseyside club.

And then he was involved in the two goals that Liverpool scored against Fulham in London after coming on as a substitute.

Just imagine what Nunez could do when he starts regularly for the former Premier League and UEFA Champions League winners.
